Toes and Surgery!

to have her ingrown toenails (yes, plural) attended to by the foot doc!

Twice before, her left big toe had a nasty ingrown nail that was

doctored on at the pediatrician's office.

Even after going through that twice (last December and this past March)
and working very hard to
keep the nail from becoming ingrown again,
there was no stopping it.
She just has really small and curved nail beds.

And then, more bad news,
the right big toe decided to go sour too!

She was exhausted after that ordeal!

So, both toes had a surgical procedure with a really big and

complicated name -- that I have already put out of my mind!!

What it basically means is that they removed the toenails
along both sides

and put in these torturous-looking long q-tips with deadly

medicine to kill the nail bed along both sides.

They left a part of the toenail down the middle so

there will be a nail to polish!

We all know all important polished toes are, right!?!

Oh dear -- what a procedure!

BIG shot to deaden the toes and those were the worst according to Maddy.
